To me, a bride represents so many things:
LOVE
BEAUTY
RESPECT
FEMININITY (I think I spelled that right). 🙂
And when I think of what a bride looks like and all that that entails, I think of Amanda. Amanda, is not only beautiful, but she is a woman that I look up to. She holds herself in such a respectful manner and as a result, so does Aaron. Amanda has a DEEP love for Aaron…and him for her. I have been looking forward to their wedding since we met over one year ago to solidify their date! And finally, I can post her bridals!!!!
The day of her bridal session, I was convinced she’s as laid back as they come. 🙂 On the way to her session, she realized that she forgot her bouqet and was TOTALLY ok with it. I love that about her….she laid on the ground amongst the pickers and who knows what else (and laughed when I had to get the pickers out of my own pants),  easily slipped her shoes off to walk through the bugs and the wooded areas with me in Jungle Gardens, and never once complained about the heat. She’s a pleasure to work with…thankfully, God has blessed me with wonderful clients that along the way become friends.
I ADORE Amanda’s red Nina’s.
She’s SO just naturally beautiful……work it girl!
This shot below is one of my favorites from the day.
I think this one IS my favorite!!!!
I’m so happy that Nicole came along; she’s so much fun and kept Amanda laughing!!
WOW! The lighting was just perfect here for her session.
Although I would definitely consider Amanda to be assertive and confident, there is still such a delicate side of her that I love.
….At the end of her session, she let her hair down. Literally. And I’m happy she did!!! This shot of her makes me smile.
I was laughing pretty hard so my eyes are almost non-existant in the shot below…lol…but I’m always happy to have at least one shot with my brides to treasure forever!
Amanda,
Seeing Aaron’s expression on Saturday when he saw you was all that I expected and more. His eyes filled with tears and his mouth clamped together as he fought back the tears was priceless. You are such an amazing person, with such a strong faith. I look up to you as a woman and I wish you all the best in your marriage. I hope you and Aaron are having a wonderful honeymoon!!!!
